Jane, one of our participants said: "The exercises are very accessible, with a range of options clearly explained and demonstrated so you can do what is right for you. Cat is a brilliant trainer, giving us lots of encouragement and support and changing exercises from class to class to keep us (quite literally) on our toes. Undertaking exercises and physio alone can be challenging, so having a regular welcoming and supportive environment in which to exercise and learn with others is amazing."
